CVE-2026-46623
Open Access Management (OpenAM) is an access management solution. Prior to 16.1.1, the OAuth2 authentication module updates an existing local account with profile attributes that can include userPassword and inetUserStatus, rewriting the password to the username and reactivating disabled accounts. The missing OAuth.removeRestrictedAccountUpdateAttributes filtering permits these credential and status fields to reach the account update.
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
With account creation enabled, repeated OAuth login causes the default ldapService chain to accept the username as both identifier and password, allowing an unauthenticated attacker to take over the local account without interacting with the identity provider. The rewrite can be denied for usernames shorter than the configured minimum password length. This issue is fixed in version 16.1.1.

- Puntuación base: 7.4
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.67%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 50
- Fecha de la puntuación: 6/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1203Exploitation for Client Executionexecution75 % - Impacto principal

T1098.001Additional Cloud Credentialspersistence · privilege escalation70 %
OAuth2 requiere interacción del usuario (UI:A) para autenticarse; la vulnerabilidad en el filtrado de atributos permite secuestro de cuenta local sin validación de identidad del proveedor, reescribiendo credenciales.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
